Parker returned the compliment: "[Miley's] a beautiful young lady and very self-possesed," the actress said. But their time together was quality, not quantity. "I literally was not in the scene with her. I was in the scene, but we were not [onscreen] together. But she was lovely and on time and prompt and professional, very sweet."

As for other SATC2 scoops, Parker was generous with some details and vague with others: "I can confirm there is no Jennifer Hudson," she offered. What about John Corbett, who played Mr. Big rival Aiden on the show but didn't appear in the first film? She "can't confirm or deny" his involvement in the sequel.
